Houndmouth: California Voodoo, Part II - 7 inch vinyl. Limited to 3,000 copies
California Voodoo, Part II is Houndmouth's second installment of state-sponsored witchcraft featuring two unreleased songs. "Talk Of The Town" is an indie music myth. Neither the time nor the place ever seemed quite right to release the track... until now. Written by maestro Jonathan Rado (of Foxygen) and the late, great Richard Swift, Houndmouth's version of "Talk" features synth-y bass, foot-stomping drums and fuzzy guitar riffs that linger in your head.
Accompanying the collab track is one from Houndmouth's Shane Cody appropriately titled "Shane's Song." The percussion focus here is tastefully accessorized by smooth guitar licks and Cody's falsetto. Crescendoing into a dizzying whirlwind, "Shane's Song" takes heartbreak and makes a beautiful sound for all to enjoy.
Mastodon: Stairway To Nick John -10 inch vinyl. Limited to 1,500 copies
GRAMMY® Award-winning Atlanta hard rock juggernaut Mastodon recorded Led Zeppelin's "Stairway To Heaven" to pay homage to their late longtime manager Nick John, who passed away after a bout with pancreatic cancer in 2018. As Zeppelin remained John's favorite act, Mastodon chose the band's opus to honor him. All proceeds benefit charity. Side A features a studio version of "Stairway To Heaven," and Side B includes a live version. This will be permanently exclusive to RSD as a 10-inch vinyl.
